The Net Rep

Last time when i was in pakistan and by chance visited a internet cafe near saddar Rwalpindi.I had seen peoples mostly school students and working people ,were waiting for internet cabins.Even Most of them did not knew how to use a computer as they were taking the help of a lady on reception desk.i was confused that they use computer for which purpose when they dont know the basic of computer.Soon i came to know the secret behind the rush in this cafe.The owner of internet had downloded dozen porn movies ,pakistani pushtoo and punjabi mujree and he was running a private school in the same building.and most of his customer were young schoool boys… sad point was that he was corrupting the minds of youngster openly.my friend told me that same story is in every internet cafe,i was surprized why Government Dont take any step against thsese people,there is no point in having cabins in netcafes. So far, I have not seen any internet cafe with cabins in USA, CANADA or Euroope.As far as freedom of information and browsing whatever you want is concerned, go home and do whatever you want in the privacy of your home….They were meant for only one purpose and that has become obvious …..

In a Rawalpindi market, two years ago, someone set up a Net Cafe.he constructed small cabins, placed computers in them, put a screen door with locks on the inside, installed lights in the ceiling and hidden in the lights, installed cameras. After the grand opening, young men and women started to patronize the establishment. They came alone or as couples, went into the cabins and viewed “dirty” websites on the computers. The owners of the establishment recorded these activities and would later show the movies to the couples and blackmail them for dirty deeds. This carried on until around 25 couples were ensared. A CD was compiled and send to Dubai where it sold for 10 lakh (about $100,000). Copies were made and sold in Britain, US, France and Germany and finally, made their way back home. In the beginning, these CDs were sold for four or five thousand rupees in Lahore and Islamabad. A gang got hold of the CD and tracked down the 25 families of the couples. They delivered the CDs to those houses. This caused an instant firestrom. Three of the girls in the scandal committed suicide. One was killed by her father. Two were divorced . While the boys ran away from their houses. Some of the young men on the CD belonged to very prominent families of Rawalpindi. These houses fell prey to blankmailing from the gang.

There are thousands of software in the world that eliminate obscene websites. The Pakistan government should install these filters on all internet services, register all Net Cafés, issue license of operations, impound unlicensed sites, and ban the use of cameras in all such facilities
